New Ammunition – Precision Engagement and Area Engagement
Nordic Co-operation in MortarsNordic Co-operation in Mortars
Government Co-operation Swedish FMV and Finnish DFMC are
active partners Danish HMAK and Norwegian
FLO/Land are observers Canada have applied for observer status
Industrial Co-operation Finnish Patria Hägglunds OY is the
prime contractor. Patria Weapon Systems and Alvis
Hägglunds are sub contractors and do all principal work (also owners of PH)
Background and Scope Task given 1996 to a Joint Nordic working group:
’Study and Develop an armoured mortar system well suited for Nordic conditions.’
Joint Nordic 4-Nation Project Agreement signed October 1999
The agreement outlines co-operation with regards to such issues as commercial, technical, tactical info
Phase 1 of the Project Agreement defines a co-operation until end 2003. Phase 2 (under preparation) shall cover all activities related to Full Development until 2007

SSG120 Navy ApplicationSSG120 Navy Application
Turret on Combat Boat 90 • Joint Army/Navy programme to be in full operation from SD&D (PDF)
• Primary focus of tests is put on:• Firing precision and accuracy
• Fire on the move
• Tests also focused at subsystem compatibility; FCC, INS+GPS, MMI
• SSG120 Navy will take full advantage from experience for the Army version
• Worlds first truly remotely controlled mortar turret
• Objective also to pave the way for firing on the move with SSG120 Army version
Areas of Particular ConcernAreas of Particular Concern
• Today's ammunition– Only qualified for transport in original boxes
– Not optimised for breech loading and direct fire
– Needs a “man in the loop”
• Fuzes– No inductive setter developed and tested
– No inductive setting fuze developed for direct firing
• Stub case– Logistic tail
– System responsibility
